Definitions
- the present invention relates to a lithium metal battery.
- a lithium secondary battery is a lithium ion battery that generally uses a carbon-based negative electrode (e.g., a negative electrode mixture layer including a carbon-based negative active material such as graphite formed on a negative current collector), and that implements movement of lithium ions through a liquid electrolyte including a lithium salt dissolved in an organic solvent.
- a carbon-based negative electrode e.g., a negative electrode mixture layer including a carbon-based negative active material such as graphite formed on a negative current collector
- a lithium metal battery is implemented in such a way that lithium ions are reduced and precipitated from the negative electrode to lithium metals during charge, and lithium metals are oxidized into lithium ions during discharge, by using a negative current collector alone or a negative electrode coated with a lithium metal layer on the negative current collector.
- capacity of the entire battery is determined by a combination of the positive electrode capacity and the negative electrode capacity
- capacity (i.e., energy density) of the lithium metal battery is determined by the positive electrode, relatively narrowing a cross-sectional area of the positive electrode may be lowering an energy density.
- the present invention provides a lithium metal battery having improved energy density and safety.
- An embodiment of the present invention provides a lithium metal battery in which the cross-sectional area of the positive electrode is configured to be equal to or larger than that of the lithium metal negative electrode.
- the lithium metal battery according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a lithium metal negative electrode; a positive electrode having a cross-sectional area equal to or greater than that of the lithium metal negative electrode; and a separator disposed between the lithium metal negative electrode and the positive electrode.
- FIG. 1A is a top view (schematic view) of a laminate in which a positive electrode, a separator, and a lithium metal negative electrode are sequentially stacked by configuring a cross-sectional area of a positive electrode to be larger than that of a lithium metal negative electrode according to the embodiment.
- FIG. 1B is a side view (schematic view) of the laminate in FIG. 1A .
- FIG. 2A is a top view (schematic view) of a laminate in which the positive electrode, the separator, and the carbon-based negative electrode are sequentially stacked by configuring a cross-sectional area of the carbon-based negative electrode to be larger than that of the positive electrode according to a general design method.
- FIG. 2B is a side view (schematic view) of the laminate of FIG. 2A .
- FIG. 3A is a top view (schematic view) of a laminate in which the positive electrode, the separator, and the lithium metal negative electrode are sequentially stacked by configuring a cross-sectional area of the lithium metal negative electrode to be larger than that of the positive electrode according to a general design method.

- FIG. 4 is a view illustrating a problem in driving a battery including the laminate of FIG. 2A or 3A .
- FIG. 5 is a view illustrating an advantage in driving a battery including the laminate of FIG. 1A .
- a combination(s) thereof included in a Markush type means a mixture or a combination of one or more selected from constituent elements described in the expression of the Markush type and is meant to include at least one selected from the constituent elements.
- a lithium metal battery having improved energy density per weight and energy density per volume compared with the lithium ion battery including a carbon-based negative electrode.
- a general lithium secondary battery is a lithium ion battery using a carbon-based negative electrode (e.g., manufactured by forming a negative electrode mixture layer including a carbon-based negative active material such as graphite and the like on a negative current collector) and realizing movement of lithium ions through a liquid electrolyte prepared by dissolving a lithium salt in an organic solvent as a medium.
- a carbon-based negative electrode e.g., manufactured by forming a negative electrode mixture layer including a carbon-based negative active material such as graphite and the like on a negative current collector
- the lithium ions derived from a positive electrode are not intercalated into the carbon-based negative active material but nonuniformly precipitated (plated) as a lithium metal on the surface of the negative electrode during the charge of the lithium ion battery.
- the lithium metal nonuniformly precipitated on the surface of the carbon-based negative electrode grows as a dendrite and then, passes a separator and causes a short circuit or forms a stable interface (a solid-electrolyte interface) between the carbon-based negative electrode and the electrolyte and thus depletes the electrolyte solution and the like and results in reducing a battery cycle-life.
- the lithium ion battery is in general designed to have a relatively larger cross-sectional area of the carbon-based negative electrode than that of the positive electrode. Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B , when the carbon-based negative electrode has a relatively larger cross-sectional area than that of the positive electrode, the lithium ions derived from the positive electrode during the charge are all intercalated into the negative active material and thus suppress growth of the lithium dendrite.
- a positive electrode tab (a positive current collector) and the negative electrode mixture layer are faced with the separator therebetween to form an electrode assembly.
- the positive current collector may directly contact with the negative electrode mixture layer and accordingly, cause a large exothermic reaction and thus an safety accident such as a thermal runaway and the like.
- a lithium metal battery uses the negative current collector alone or a negative electrode manufactured by coating a lithium metal layer on the negative current collector, so that the lithium ions are reduced and precipitated into a lithium metal at the negative electrode during the charge, while the lithium metal is oxidized into the lithium ions during the discharge.
- the lithium metal battery is operated through precipitation of the lithium metal at the negative electrode every cycle and thus has a feature of using an electrolyte and a separator material, which are appropriate for suppressing the lithium dendrite and preventing the short circuit.
- This lithium metal battery has a merit of improving energy density per volume and energy density per weight compared with the lithium ion battery by greatly reducing a thickness of the negative electrode mixture layer. Unlike the lithium ion battery having entire battery capacity determined by a combination of positive electrode capacity and negative electrode capacity, it is the positive electrode that determines entire battery capacity (i.e., energy density) of the lithium metal battery. Accordingly, as shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B , relatively reducing the cross-sectional area of cross-sectional area of the positive electrode is not different from lowering the energy density of the battery.
- the positive electrode tab the positive current collector
- the lithium metal layer of the negative electrode face each other with the separator therebetween to form an electrode assembly.
- FIG. 4 when the separator is shrunk due to a cell temperature increase and the like, and the positive current collector directly contacts with the lithium metal layer of the negative electrode, a larger exothermic reaction than that of the lithium ion battery may occur and thus cause a larger safety accident.
- the lithium metal battery of the embodiment uses a lithium metal negative electrode having a higher theoretical discharge capacity than that of the carbon-based negative electrode, a loading amount of the negative active material may relatively be reduced, and a thickness of the negative electrode may be designed to be thin. In this way, when the lithium metal is used as a negative active material, the reduction of the loading amount of the negative active material and the design alone of the thickness of the negative electrode to be thin may improve energy density per weight and energy density per volume of a battery.
- the lithium metal battery of the embodiment is designed to make the cross-sectional area of the positive electrode determining capacity (i.e., energy density) of the battery larger than that of a negative electrode, energy density per weight and energy density per volume may be further improved.
- the lithium metal battery of the embodiment has an advantage of inducing a contact of the positive electrode mixture layer having a small exothermic amount with the negative current collector during contraction of the separator due to a cell temperature increase and thus preventing a thermal runaway and improving safety.
- a cross-sectional area of the negative electrode is designed to be 1.02 times to 1.2 times a cross-sectional area of the positive electrode.
- the cross-sectional area of the positive electrode may be designed to be 1.0 time to 1.3 times, and specifically 1.03 times to 1.2 times, or 1.05 times to 1.1 times the cross-sectional area of the lithium metal negative electrode.
- the lithium metal battery of the embodiment may have an improved energy density per weight and energy density per volume.
- the cross-sectional area of the positive electrode is designed to be the same as or relatively larger than that of the lithium metal negative electrode but is not limited within the numerical range.
- the cross-sectional area of the separator may be designed to be 1.01 to 1.3 times as large as that of the lithium metal negative electrode. In this way, since the cross-sectional area of the lithium metal negative electrode is relatively smaller than that of the separator, the lithium metal negative electrode and the separator have so large an extra space therebetween that the lithium dendrite may rarely contact the positive electrode.
- the cross-sectional area of the separator is designed to be relatively larger than that of the positive electrode but not limited within the numerical range.
- the lithium metal negative electrode of the embodiment has no structural difference from the lithium metal negative electrode generally known before the embodiment, except for the specificity of the cross-sectional area.
- the lithium metal negative electrode of the embodiment may be a copper current collector alone having a thickness of 1 to 20 ⁇ m; or may include a lithium metal layer having a thickness of 1 to 100 ⁇ m, for example 1 to 50 ⁇ m which is coated on the both surfaces or one surface of the copper current collector.
